Why aren't you using the best Source-Based distribution?
>>53856495
CRUX Linux is best too.
>>53856495
Why the fuck would you go source based? Do you like wasting time?
>>53856572
but, it's optimized for your computer.
>>53856589
Does it really matter that much as long as it's the right architecture? Do you also build all your software from the source too?
How do you get a compiler running without an OS?
>>53856495
Because I'm a noob and region-blocked from their IRC channel.
>>53856643
there is some difference... x86 has been around forever and as a result there are many processor specific optimizations that gcc can utilize.
worth the 2+ hours it takes to compile a big program like libreoffice / firefox? probably not
>>53856868
Yeah but what do you think the devs are using to compile it? They are using GCC too, with all the same optimizations.
>>53856643
Yes.
>How do you get a compiler running without an OS ?
I chrooting it on linux live usb like ubuntu or systemrescd.
>>53856904
some optimizations will not work on certain processors... devs compile with catch-all CFLAGS

The time alone from compiling GCC will never be gotten back through performance gains.
Every single package and update is further time added to your debt.
